Fruits Basket Anime remake?

Moved from Anime Discussion

I don't see it happening since the manga has long since ended, but I've seen stranger things happening, like the FLCL continuation, Parasyte getting revived, or the Aria the Avvenire being a thing. Fruits Basket is one of the first romance anime I've seen, as well as one of the first I've seen that was originally from a shoujo manga, so I'd be glad to relive it again. Though, I'm unsure of how it would be received. Perhaps just as well as Kamisama Hajimemashita?

Hi there! Lately I've talking to other people who love Fruits Basket as much as I do, whether that's the anime or the manga. If you have either seen/read Fruits Basket, then you might know what an impact it may have had on people with it's different perspectives of life, powerful quotes, dealing with problems and the ways everyone faces them. You must have also noticed how the cheerful Tohru manages to make her way into the Souma family, listening and helping their problems. This has personally been a life changing show for me and many others.
Now, getting back to the main topic: if you have seen the anime, you must know it had an open ending, and if you have read the manga, you know how many things they skipped in order to just fit it to 26 episodes. Still after 16 years, the show still lives up to it's hype. However, the great shoujo anime director Akitarou Daichi stated there won't be another season of it. That's how I thought "Well, it might now get a second season, but what about a remake? I mean, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood made it's way up following the manga's storyline, so why can't this shoujo do the same thing?"

I don't know, I might be fantasizing about something that will never happen, I'm aware of that, but I just wanted to check with someone with more experience in the anime community (today it's officially a year since I started watching anime, yay!) could tell me if I'm that wrong and should forget about it (which, sorry, but I wont. I'm a natural dreamer :P). Thank you! :)
